Chapter 125: Falling Lake

It's just a glance, but I'm sure it's definitely not a ghost doctor, it's not an animal, it's a woman, a living woman! She stood quietly at the bottom of the lake, her hair scattered, motionless, and the look made me creepy, and just one glance gave me goosebumps all over my body.

In the midst of great panic, I couldn't hold my breath for a moment, and choked hard in my lungs. Gu Nianxia saw that my situation was not good, so he hurriedly pulled the rope on my waist, Gu Nianxia and I were quickly pulled back to the shore by our companions, and after surfacing, I spit out water in a big gulp, and cried in panic: "Ghost...... Ghost...... There are ghosts ......."

The old man's face was shocked, he stared at a pair of round and bulging eyes, and asked me urgently: "Third child, what are you panicking about?" Why are you scared like this? ”

I heard the old man's words clearly, but I would have been scared silly, how could I explain slowly and calmly, I cried with a sad face, grabbed the old man and said in horror: "Ghost...... There's a female ghost! The old man and Zhou Boren looked solemn, and they saw that I was a little slurred when they spoke, so they turned their heads and asked Gu Nianxia, "What did you see?" ”

Although Gu Nianxia was also frightened, he was sitting on the ground gasping for breath at the moment, but he was obviously much calmer than me, and after he calmed down a little, he told everyone what he had just seen in the water.

Gu Nianxia didn't have any rhetoric in the whole process of description, but just told the real scene at the bottom of the lake as it was, but even so, everyone was still sweating in the buttocks, their faces were as white as paper, and the sweat of shock was like rain.

Uncle Lao Yang said solemnly: "If you follow Nian Xia's description, there is no doubt that the thing under the lake is a "person", not a fish or animal. But how can "people" stand at the bottom of the lake? Could it be ...... Are there really ghosts in this world? ”

Zhou Boren said: "Your ears only seem to care about the female ghost, but Nian Xia just said that in addition to the female ghost, there is a huge lock at the bottom of the lake, isn't it?" What does this mean? This shows that the "Zi Bu Yu Tomb" we are looking for is indeed at the bottom of the lake! That's what I care about." With that, he turned his head and asked the old man, "What do you think?" ”

The old man smiled coldly: "Hehehe...... Female ghosts? There was a hint of yin in his eyes, and he said in a low voice to everyone: "It's interesting now, it seems that this strange man in the Tang Dynasty is really a bit of a Taoist, judging from his handwriting these times, if this guy's tomb is excavated, it will definitely be a miracle in our Chinese tomb history!" ”

The old man slowly lit a cigarette, calmed down and continued: "Everyone, judging from the information we have so far, the Zibuyu Tomb is at the bottom of this lake, and it is certain about this. As for whether the things they saw at the bottom of the lake were humans or ghosts, wouldn't we be able to see clearly if we poured out the lake......

When everyone heard the old man's words, they all looked at each other and were confused. Er Biao frowned and said, "Dump the lake water?" You're kidding? Old man, I know you're very capable, but this is a lake, not a spittoon, you pour one for me."

The old man smiled coldly and said, "Heh, little pool, why is it difficult to overturn?" ”

After saying that, he slowly raised a hand, his eyes were sharp, pointed to the south and said to everyone: "The embankment of a thousand feet will collapse with the nest of ants, and the room of a hundred feet will be burned with the smoke of the crack." Tomb robbers, the best at ...... since ancient times"

The old man put on a posture of being a master of the world, and talked eloquently for about half an hour, in our vernacular, it is something that can be finished in twenty words, he has to write a book, what do you say you can do with him? I listened to him rambling for a long time, it was classical Chinese, and it was the history of tomb robbery, and in the end, the old man's foaming stars flew sideways, and he almost didn't take out the glorious deeds of his explosive dark coins in the northwest of Jin Province again.

But luckily, I finally got it.

The old man's meaning is actually very simple:

We were not on the plains, but at high altitudes, that is, the south was much lower than the north, and the old lad thought that if we dig a ditch in the south, flush with the bottom of the lake, and open it up, all the water in the lake would flow down the ditch, and not a drop would be left.

In the tomb robbery industry, how to drain the stagnant water in the ancient tomb is a university question. Experienced and experienced people, looking at its topography, can know the ups and downs that are invisible to the naked eye. Legend has it that when the tomb of Fan Li, a doctor of the Yue Kingdom, was stolen, there was a strange scene of "ten thousand fish restless" at the scene. According to the insider's description, the ancient tomb is a typical "water tomb", which is recorded in the "Anhui Tongzhi": Fan Li's tomb, surrounded by lakes, the tomb floats in it, as high as a mountain. The temple is built on it, and the statue of Shih Tzu is molded inside, and there is a dense forest of pines and cypresses, which is spectacular and abnormal.

But at that time, the person who stole and excavated this ancient tomb was a person who was called "Lou's monkey" by the rivers and lakes, and this person's tomb robbery method can be described as earth-shattering and crying ghosts and gods, facing the surging lake in front of him, the "Lou's monkey" only used a thin bamboo, and the water was all discharged, so that the tomb was fully displayed in front of him.

The old man's plan was roughly calculated, and if everyone worked day and night, they would be able to dig a ditch in about seven days to drain all the water in the small lake. Zhou Boren thought for a while, nodded and agreed to this plan, because what the old man said was right, since there is a female ghost at the bottom of this lake, it is impossible to dive and rob the tomb, otherwise once something happens, you won't even be able to run. So for the sake of safety, we had to get rid of the lake.

Now that the general direction has been set, it's time to roll up your sleeves and get started. People are like this, they are not afraid of hardship, they are afraid that they do not know the road ahead. Once people have determined their own path, they will burst out with a steady stream of motivation, regardless of how tiring and painful the process is.

For the next seven days, six members of our Unsolved Mysteries Institute, plus the old man, Mr. Jia and Jia Dong, got up before dawn every day to work until midnight. The sweat of the water naturally brought us the result we wanted: to the south of the small lake, a drainage canal with a depth of eight meters and a half gradually formed......

When Feng Erbiao's last hoe dug through the mud wall blocking the lake, in an instant, the lake burst out, and the water level of a small lake the size of a football field dropped sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye. Everyone stood on the shore with hoes, everyone was motionless, staring at the bottom of the lake with bated breath, seeing that the lake was getting less and less, and the scene at the bottom of the lake was about to be revealed, at that moment, we seemed to be able to hear the sound of our own heartbeat.

After a long time, the bottom of the lake was finally revealed!
